You have a complete misunderstanding of what is happening in Texas. We have no income tax so our school are supported by sales and property taxes which illegals have no choice but to pay. There is a fundamental misconception that was put out there by Bachmann, Mittens, and Santorum that student outside of Texas are put at a disadvantage by the tuition discount. They are, but it is not because of the law, it is because they are not Texans, just like Texans are at a disadvantage in the other 49 states..I mean 56 states (I always forget the new 7 we have).

Also, keep in mind that in order to get into a State College in Texas as a Freshman you have to be in the top 10% of your graduating class. The likelihood that anyone in a village in Mexico is planning to come to Texas to get a discount at UT is laughable. They are coming here to get jobs and because Narco-Terrorist are killing them by the thousands. Until we fix Mexico and the border they are going to keep coming. That is not Rick Perry's job. He wants the job, but it isn't his yet. The fact is that the US Government has not given a damn about the US-Mexican border since Patton was here trying to kill Pancho Villa.

How nice of you to completely overlook President Eisenhower's "Operation Wetback."

Thanks for your response ... not being a Texas resident ... and Rick Perry not properly explained this ... I see where I have been mistaken ..


My only two closing remarks are:

1) Why are the Texas GOP Aggies upset at Rick Perry for this ?

2) Rick Perry needs to CLEARLY explain these details ... because on the surface he appears to be PRO-ILLEGAL-IMMIGRANT ...



Thanks again,


Patton-at-Bastogne
